The Immune System is the most composite biological system in the body. The immune system deliberately protects the host from invading pathogens and eliminates the disease.
Immunity is divided into two parts, although in practice there is much interaction between them.

The two types are:-

The inborn immunity

The adaptive immunity

An autoimmune disease means the immune system start producing auto - antibodies to an antigen, which is usually produced in our body due to some injury to tissues of the body. The connective tissues like muscles, skin, and joints are prone to wear and tear. Some persons have a tendency for these connective tissues to undergo degenerative transformation that are initiated by inflammatory and immunological mechanisms. Some diseases are related to immunity are systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis, myastheniagravis, diabtetes mellitus and vitiligo. Modern medical approach for autoimmine disorders rests primarily upon the use of NSAIDs and corticosteroids. Prolonged usage of NSAIDs damages the liver damage and irritates the gut wall and corticosteroids depress immune functions.

The natural immunomodulants appears to best and appropriate option in autoimmune conditions. Medicinal plants plays significant role in preventing human being from various pathogenic microorganisms and diseases. Nature has provided numerous medicinal plants which have immunomodulatory properties. In Ayurvedic literature numbers of plants are mentioned to promote physical, mental health and defensive mechanism in the body. These herbs are categorized as 'Rasayan' (immunomodulatory or adaptogenic). These rasayan are effective in enhancing immunity and respondes well in many autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, nephritis, cancer, sclerosis, uveitis, thyroiditis, and early stages of insulin dependent diabetes mellitus. To enhance immune system the underlying energetic principle related to dhatu and dosha must be considered according to Ayurveda.
